This is US car companies using their paid off politicians to make the US pressure another country into not making a deal that would increase competition in that market to their detriment .That’s many layers of fuckery deeper.
Is it that if they’re just blocking the vehicles that are subsidized? Let’s see what these EVs sell for without the Chinese government paying half the production costs.
Everything you said is true, except you are missing the context that this is for-profit US car companies not wanting to compete against state-owned car manufacturers who get all of their money from China and can take huge losses in order to outsell for-profit, private entities.

If they’re blocking subsidized vehicles they’d have to block US companies
The subsidies in the US apply to companies of any nationality. The subsidies from China only cover companies controlled by the Chinese government.

It’s false Chinese subsidized market… We don’t want that.
They will price out domestic companies at a loss and then ramp up prices later.
We want a free market without subsidized anything
